Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren)

Chapter 247 Harvey addressed the crowd with a smile, The Weller family has another important announcement to make today

Though many already knew what this second announcement would be, someone still asked, What might that be, Mr.

Weller ? Harvey straightened his expensive suit, his smile growing brighter.

This other matter is a joyous occasion.

Ill officially become the new head of the Weller family.

All family affairs and authority will now be transferred to me.

The crowd fell silent for a moment before scattered applause began, accompanied by various murmurs and discussions

Hes quite young to take over the Weller family.

Thats quite an achievement ! someone whispered.

He must be the youngest family head in Jayrodale.

Lets hope he can handle such immense power.

Mr.

Weller Senior just died, and hes already announcing his rise to power.

Harveys clearly ruthless

Wed better be careful not to cross him in the future, another muttered

Harvey inwardly smirked at the comments, barely containing his satisfaction.

From now on, he would have absolute power, and anyone who dared defy him would be crushed.

Ms.

Stevens, are you here? Harvey called out, seizing the moment to flex his new authority

The crowd parted silently, revealing Christinas family of three, along with two elite guards from Bridgefields Stevens family.

The Stevens family is present.

What do you want? Irene challenged with her hands akimbo.

Harvey nodded.

Ah, its good to see the Stevens family knows better than to make me fetch you personally. And please, watch your tone.

Im now the head of the Weller family, someone way above you.

Christina and her family tensed up as they noted the threatening undertone in his voice. Well, Mr.

Weller, why dont just be straightforward and stop beating around the bush ? Christina asked evenly, suppressing her anger

Christie, my feelings for you are well known throughout Jayrodale, Harvey said, gazing at her smugly. On this day, III ask you once more will you accept my proposal? Though his smile appeared harinless, everyone present could sense the obvious coercion of Stevens Corporations beloved CEO.

Harvey is using his new position to force a marriage proposal

He clearly lacks the dignity of a family head, Silas commented disapprovingly 25 BONUS Chapter 247 Harvey controls the entire Weller family now.

If Christina refuses, Stevens Corporation is done for.

Francesca sighed.

Lauren glanced at Andrews calm expression and whispered, Dr.

Lloyd, arent you going to step in? The Stevens family has their own elite martial artists.

They dont need me, Andrew replied.

C Christina lowered her head before suddenly looking up with determination.

Im sorry, but I must decline your kind offer.

A shocked murmur rippled through the crowd

After all, no one had expected Christina to actually reject Harvey on this day of all days.

With his newfound power, was she not afraid of provoking him?
